I recall reading about an OTA update from Phantom for the Blazer 4.1 rom- Is the update out yet- I saw a zip update in my recovery and I dont recall downloading it. I was wondering if anybody has seen an update for 4.1 recently- If not Blazer 4.1- I'm wondering what it is. ( not about to do anything dumb and just flash it without info.) Thanks !

---------- Post added at 08:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:30 PM ----------

I had same issue- NOT a rom problem- First- I would try easiest fix- Turn off phone, then remove battery for 2-3 minutes, reinstall- refresh prl and profile- and retest mms- If that doesnt do it- wipe dalvik, wipe cache ( 2x each- just to be thorough-)

then flash calkulins full e4gt wipe ( NOT Regular wipe ) , then reflash Blazer 4.1. I did this- and mms is as good as new. I couldnt find specific cause for mms issue- but this fixed it.

also- check to be sure your modem is also updated PROPERLY.

the radio can affect connectivity as well. I am currently on

Gunslinger kernel, FC 24 modem- offers a moderate amount more of reception/stability than EL 29, but thats just my 2 cents. Each geographic area will respond to different modems-

in different ways- thats what I learned from XDA members and experts.

Blazer thanks for an awesome rom. It's almost annoying when everything just works : ) Does anyone know if this rom has a built-in call block / blacklist feature? I'd prefer to use the built in one if it exists as opposed to run a 3rd party app.

On other Gingerbread roms (it could have been touchwiz) I thought that within a contact you could block a number and that there was a setting in the settings menu under privacy or something. Any ideas out there? Am I missing something silly?

I currently use Chomp SMS which let's me block texts (or at least hide them from notifications and my message list). Would like to do it for phone numbers...

Thx in advance for any ideas.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] I_FLY_Z3R0:
I don't think there's a built in one. Just use a 3rd party one. I had a real good one that would disconnect the call no voicemail or ringing.

Battery?

Hows the battery backup on my setup? I dont use voicemail but still? Have a look and do reply. I have quarantined the app for now
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sniper:
You can do it through sprint by texting to 9999. Send help to see all the options or block then the number or email to block receiving calls or texts from them.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] revamper:
If you don't use voicemail, then uninstall it through titanium backup. That battery life is on par with what you should be getting.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tahlsr:
Thanks. I just did it on Sprints website.

I stopped reading after the 1000th post.....can we add TSM parts to blazer 4.1? Im after the lockscreen mods and other minor things
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sol_671:
Adding TSM parts would cause rom instability. It would be more of a hassle for users trying to get rid of it rather than adding it. If you want the added lockscreen trying flashing KingofdaJungle's ICS theme( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1528063 )on blazer, its would give you the TSM parts.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Carbajal3009:
I always ran the tsm parts for this rom. I had maybe one reboot...you just have to install it the right way and try to let the lockscreen or mod your using(from the tsm parts) to settle in. I have never had a bad time with the tsm mods
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cuezaireekaa:
i too have ran TSM on blazer with no problems.

dazednconfused made a theme called Blue Transfusion that has TSM and works nice with this rom. i used it for months with no hotboots.

.....well, except for my phone rebooting after putting something on my external sd and then when i unmount from my pc, the phone reboots while scannning the media... i dont have tsm on now but that problem still lingers. :confused: love this roms batt life none the less
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Osirus71:
How were you able to do it from sprints website
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] harley1rocker:
1st off,all the rom devs and themers do great work. Ive tried all of em and love em all. No ICS tho,ive had probs when they 1st leaked. Are they stable now? More important,do the come with rogue recovery or acs? If so,ill flash one. If not,i can wait.

Anyway,on 2 tha point. Blazer has been a smokin rom. I added tsm parts(thanx kingofjungle) and now im getting the upside down lockscreen and random reboots...is ther a fix?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Carbajal3009:
Set animations in the tsm settings to off... All of them. Then reboot. Let it sit for a little while... Then turn he animations to normal speed... Then reboot. It should be fixed now... But that's just my experience.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dubez:
Great freaking rom!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sol_671:
I know TSM mods very well, it originated from the galaxy s fascinate (COMM ROM) the phone I came from, sbrissen or nitsuj17 tend to give two options with or without tms parts, some people would not really care for the bells and whistles and would rather have stability. I know TSM rarely have reboots, but I rather have it as an option rather than built in. I can see noobs blaming the ROM already when it starts hot booting without really thinking of the mods. It happened before.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dubez:
market won't open, what's the fix guys?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Carbajal3009:
There is nothing wrong with the rom itself. please would you mind telling me your flash process? Try to go to settings... Applications... All.. Then clear data for the market then reboot. then see what happens
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dubez:
Thanks, that did the trick... Loving this rom so far. Smooth a butter
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Carbajal3009:
Ya I know what you mean. This is the go to rom when it comes to speed... Reliability.. And battery life. Also that original ics look. :D just can't wait til phantoms next release... Whatever it may be.. :cool:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dubez:
Battery life is draining fast for me. Any suggestions guys?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CyberpodS2:
How long has it been since you flashed it? How many charge/drain cycles has it been through. I have had some ROM's take 3-5 complete charge cycles to really settle in. This ROM is easily in the top 3 for battery life so if your still seeing that after a few days there's probably something else going on. For instance it may be as simple as a battery hog like the Facebook app that seems to emit an eternal sucking sound after you open it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dubez:
2 days with the rom, this is my 2 battery drain. I will remove Facebook, charge, and see where that takes me. Thanks for the feedback
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] revamper:
You need to calibrate your battery and wipe your battery stats at 100%.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Rooster85:
You do realize wiping battery stats does nothing right? Always flash with a fully charged battery. I keep one in the cradle so flashing is very close by

Sent from my awesomely EPIC Phone
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] revamper:
Except it really does. The reason why his battery keeps going up and down is because of the battery stats. It happened to me until I wiped battery stats. I agree to always flash at 100%.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
What was your screen time? I may be wrong here but I dont think android os and dolphin should be higher than display, assuming you have more than an hour or so screen time.

Edit: Sorry the mobile app must have had a glitch and did not quote correctly. This post is in response to Dubez post about his battery drain.

I was also considering your Wifi on time, try changing your Wifi sleep settings to "When Screen Turns Off". Also, do you always get that poor of a signal? I have similar issues living in a rural area, poor signal plagues all cell providers out here. If I am seeing your screenshot correctly, you probably sit at 1-2 bars all day, maybe grabbing a third bar from time to time. If your location is near me (Bucks County PA) try out the EL29/FE07/FF02 modems, they have given me the best results with "pocket drain" and screen time. Honestly from what I read, EL29 is the best modem for this rom IN GENERAL (before I get flamed....) no matter where you are located. Modems seem to be area dependent, and finding the right modem for your area might just be your answer. Either way, I turn off notifications and syncs for ALL apps except for my weatherbug widget and Google accounts. Get back to this post with some more info (your modem, kernel, screen ontime per cycle, whether or not you have updated your profile since flashing rom/modem, etc) and hopefully me or some other of these great folks can give you a hand!

PS: Maybe try going back to the stock kernel for a cycle or two; I have two friends with the same phone via Sprint, both of them can get 2 days with moderate use via the FE07 modem and the Rogue Gunslinger kernel....my phone gets 8 hours with 2 hours screen time on Gunslinger, but I'm able to get MUCH more with the stock EL29 kernel. Strange how the devices differ...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Hey Vadyr. All good advice. I thought the wifi sleep setting should be set on 'Never' to be the most efficient. Works for me anyway.

I've tried a bunch of different modems and also live in a low signal area. None of them made a big difference for me so I left mine on a stock modem. I totally agree that every phone is different. Just because the next guy can get 2 days doesn't mean I will (or do) and changing up to a different kernel could make all the difference.

gapps

can we flash gapps on blazer?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sniper:
They're already in the rom? Lol, and any other Google apps you want you can download from the play store.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] yellowman82:
you only flash gapps on aosp type of roms you dont need it for Gingerbread blazer ROM
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] johnhuh:
gapps

i understand, but I like the gapps on ics better than on GB. will it work if I flash? or will it brick my phone
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] yellowman82:
No it wont work its only for ICS
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SuperSwagSauce:
Whatever happened to ICS Blazer?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dw3bb10:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sniper:
Do you mean the lockscreen? You can change it under settings>security or could use a custom lockscreen app all together.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oldpreowner:
I mean the lock screen style ie. Gingerbread, asop, rotary etc.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gr33nd3vil:

Anyone have the email that has an icon like asop instead of the ugly touchwiz one
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kanekz:
Try updating your PRL and Profile under settings update. Then reboot phone. You could also try flashing EL29 modem and doing the updates mentioned earlier.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] revamper:
I suggest starting over with a clean install of blazer with the el29 modem.

Does anyone know how to change the lockscreen font back to stock without altering the status bar

EL29 CWM problems to flash blazer

So I did my best to read through the thread and I didn't find exactly what I'm wondering so here goes....

I downloaded e4gtauto-lite-sfx and after finding rogue is crap, was told to install the EL26 CWM instead which worked. But now it isn't working, goes to manual mode which doesn't really let me do anything. So I'm wondering if there is a singular EL26 CWM kernel to install through Odin, or if a non-rogue EL29 CWM exists yet? I really am counting on Blazer being my last hope since MIUI and CM9 screwed up my phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
What is manual mode?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Ok, I'll take a stab at this.

Really don't know where you got the info but if you are on Gingerbread, you ARE running a Kernel that has been touched by Team Rogue.

Let me be very clear. The EL26 Stock CWM kernel found here:

http://chris41g.devphone.org/index.php?dir=EpicTouch/Stock+Repack/EL26/

is the ONLY one that is recommended if you plan on flashing an ICS based rom.

Since you're on Gingerbread now, the stock and custom kernels that Rogue has released are absolutely the way to go for speed and battery life. There are a few more floating around like the ones from ACS in that post but every GB rom that is in the top 5 uses the Rogue based kernels.

Now that being said, the last two releases of the Rogue kernels were controversial. Hitman v1.5.0 with touch recovery was removed because there was another kernel out (also with touch recovery) that was suspected of bricking phones so Steady Hawkins decided to remove it from the public domain so his couldn't be questioned. Gunslinger v1.4.1 (same kernel as Hitman, without the touch recovery), had performance issues with some phones. I bet there are a ton of users still running it though because it works great for them!

Edit: Someone jump in and correct me if I missed something please.

Anyway, as far as I know, these ARE the kernels to use with GB:

Located here are most of the Rogue stock and custom kernels:

This is the first custom rom that I have flashed on my E4GT, I was previously just using the stock rooted EL29. Just getting everything setup and downloaded apps etc...

First thing I noticed is that the screen does not seem as vibrant as the stock rom, was this done to help with battery life? I set screen to dynamic and it helped a little, but I kinda miss that color pop the stock rom had.

Also, my gallery is showing my camera pics in the wrong direction. The touchscreen buttons are correct pic the pics and thumbnails are rotated incorrectly. The other folders of pics are oriented the correct way though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Osirus71:
Is anyone using ADW EX with this rom??? And if so, do you like it better the default launcher???

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] GeneralSky2004:

This should do it for you. This is the stock Blazer 4.1 framework, flash this in recovery. Make a backup of what you have first while you're in recovery in case you installed something else that this may change. Tnx - TD

Anyone else have problems with TB restoring apps on this ROM?

I'm coming from Calkulin, I used the FORMAT_ALL, then flashed.. Not sure what I'm missing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
What kind of issue? Are you using batch restore?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jmejiaa:
Yes, batch restore. It'll get to some apps and just stay there, but I've never had this issue on other roms.

If I try not selecting that app, it'll eventually get stuck on another.

The ROM looks awesome though
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cuezaireekaa:
this has happened to me before. i just picked apps that (don't) get installed to the sd card and installed them via batch first. (like a lot of my games would just hang on batch restore. ) then restore the others via batch BUT with NO data. after theyre installed, then restore data only separately if needed. thats how i got them to work.

it has nothing to do with the rom though. :) ..as i've had to do this on others
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Make sure debugging is on, just apps no data. Then reboot, I guess it wouldn't hurt to wipe cache & davlik too (app data gets cached, so it doesn't hurt to clear out if you're having issues). Then only restore data manually to the few apps that really need it. You must have debugging on for TB to work correctly.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jmejiaa:
How do you distinguish on TB what's getting installed to the phone vs/SD.

And I flashed Calkulin's ICS and getting the same issue so it isn't the ROM :)

I confirmed that, will try with the steps listed.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cuezaireekaa:
i dont think you can. i just kinda remembered what huge games i had kept on/moved to the SD. good luck, im sure these steps should work
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jmejiaa:
Thanks, I deleted the 2 that were causing it to freeze, they weren't too important.. It's moving along for now.

I might just try this ICS build since I'm on it now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cuezaireekaa:
cool, but Blazer is super stable. a lot of people enjoy ics fine but i employ a lot of different tweaks and some work on ics. some dont. also, some games are hit or miss on ics atm for us. i've a lot of those too. ive tried to get everything i need working on ics at the same time but cant find a ROM that does it for me :p

so i am comfortable with GB BLazer for now. just waiting on source :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jmejiaa:

Backup Gmail, remove it and see if the stock version you can d/l from the market will do it for you.

I think it has to be another GB rom to be compatible btw.

ok.... I had rogue cwm el29 and tried flashing MIUI and it didn't do anything but get me to a looped boot screen. I was then told to try the egblahblahblah thing, and it worked, got a working CWM installed. I then tried out CM9 and it was a mess so I went back to stock. So now I'm trying to install Blazer. So you're saying that using the ROGUE CWM EL29 from e4gtauto-lite-sfx WILL install blazer rom? Because in that case I won't worry about any other CWM and install that. So I flash GB, install EL29 rogue CWM from e4gtauto-lite-sfx then boot recovery install caulkin and follow directions from there? I want to make sure I'm doing everything right because I've wasted HOURS of my life trying to do this crap that shouldn't be so difficult. So thank you for your help.
